Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - Official thread

My excitement is tempered by that 28GB I'm going to be forced to download. Still, this weekend is going to be fun!

Such a long intro "whistling:

Oh Kojima-san!

I would have 'spoiler(d)' that first line. Even though MGS is known for its famed extended cutscenes, probably jammed with as much dialogue as possible.

 

[Graal]

Why would you spoiler something that isn't a spoiler?

 

[Hagan]

My second line is kinda contradictory to my first.

You'll be surprised. A lot of people would consider that a spoiler.

Download is only 20.3GB bud.

Game released on steam at 6am this morning, my dl still has 11 % to go. Not sure I'll get to play much but at least the dl will be finished soon.

So tempted to start mine up right now. Wife and I took an early day to go out, just quickly stopped at home so we can travel in 1 car.

Oh man thanks for the info dude! It looks like Takealot will have my copy delivered to me today so I could probably download the game overnight then.

Eh, I just think it's silly. It's not like it gives away any story elements. If someone wants to know that little about a game, they're likely better off not reading the thread at all.

Yikes! How is that a spoiler?

 

[The Joker]

lol The prologue mission was probably the longest intro to any game I've ever played :wtf:

Edit: The game is also incredibly pretty @4K maxed, I did notice a couple of odd/grainy textures but that may have just been my eagle eyes being a bit over critical.

Terrible Tuesday goddam flooding ment no game for me today.I hope when the river dies down there still is a bridge.

 

[Hagan]

Revolver Ask-A-Lot - Most annoying character in MGS.

 

[Glordit]

Got my copy but, will not be playing until about Friday or next week.

 

[brendanvb]

Just finished the prologue. Various kinds of weird...[emoji14]

Eurogamer review just came out and it got the essential rating.GOAT.

Indeed, that prologue is all over the place. But fucking intense! And stunning too. I'm going into mission 3 tonight, played just over 5 hours last night. Game is phenomenal.

Has anyone downloaded the game from Steam? How large is the actual download size. I know the total install size is 28Gigs, but the download size is usually smaller than the total install size. Any help would be appreciated! I'm keen to get stuck in.
